Abstract:
Using roles for modeling organizations has
become common in commercial policy based access control
systems and widely accepted in policy-based management
research for the grouping of policies. In this paper we argue
that the role abstraction is inflexible in the face of many
forms of organizational change and thus only an appropriate
abstraction for mostly static organizational structures. We
describe a novel policy grouping abstraction based upon
communities. We ground the community-based approach
through an application to dynamic spectrum access.
